Chapter 15 · Thoughts on the Rising Sign: War and Travel
लग्नचिन्ताध्यायः
वृषवृश्चिककर्कटैर्नृणामनुकूलैरपि लग्नमाश्रितैः ।गमनं च वदन्त्यशोभनं मुनयोऽन्त्यर्क्षसमाश्रितैरपि ॥ २८ ॥
Taurus, Scorpio and Cancer may be good for people. Yet the sages call a journey bad when one of them is the rising sign. They say the same when one of them is in the 12th house.
Simple meaning: Taurus, Scorpio or Cancer in the 1st or 12th house is bad for a journey, the sages say.
मीने कुटिलो मार्गो भवति तदंशेऽन्यराशिलग्नेऽपि ।
With Pisces rising, the road may be crooked. Do not travel when a water sign or its navamsha rises.
सर्वं प्रमाणं मुनिनोदितत्वात्किं त्वत्र होराबलमेव योग्यम् ।
Here the strength of the half-sign matters. The half with the Sun faces sideways. Count the rest from it.
धत्ते वांछितकार्यमूर्ध्ववदना क्लेशाद्विना लग्नगा क्लेशायासपरिक्षयांश्चकुरुते तिर्यङ्मुखी गच्छतः ।
An upward half-sign rising brings success. A sideways one, trouble. A downward one, loss and a hard return.
